Negations, Multiple people, possession and ownership NEGATION So far, I have found two forms of negation, 不 and 不会。不会 is used for negating actions and abilities, while 不 is everything else. For examples： 我不会咬你 (I will not bite you) 我不会跳高 (I can not jump high) 我不好 (I am not fine) RULE OF DOU In American Sign Language, 都 is used as "two-of-us," "three-of-us," "all-of-us," etc. It is used to talk about multiple people, after listing the people. 我妈妈，我哥哥，我都很好 (My mom, brother and I are fine) RULE OF POSESSION/WANT/NEED In English, we "have a X," but in Chinese, you "have one/two/three/etc. item(s) X". This is indicated by 台 for objects, or 只 for animals (I don't yet know about humans.) 我有一台电视 (I have a television) 我有一只老鼠 (I have a mouse) RULE OF OWNERSHIP In Chinese, ownership of objects and animals is shown with 的。It comes after the owner and before the object 我妈妈的老鼠 (My mom's mouse) Edit to ask a question: How do I list items in Chinese?
